SSCB#10 - We've Moved

Today I'm playing along with the Serendipity Stamps Challenge blog. We run a challenge twice a month so you have plenty of time to play. All you need to do is create a design using at least one Serendipity Stamps image. The challenge this time is to stamp a background on your project! Lately I have Spring fever. Can't wait to walk barefoot in the grass or open the windows and shut off the furnace! That explains where my little birdhouse came from - if you look close it's sitting in a dogwood tree!I stamped the background on cream paper and then colored in the blue sky with my Copic markers - and can I say that paper was very thirsty!! I threw in some burlap for texture and of course maybe a little motivation for the birds to move back in!

Need a little inspiration? Visit the rest of the design team and see the backgrounds they stamped for this challenge.

I hope you'll join us at the Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog - we'd love to see what you come up with - and hey! You might just win $20 off your next Serendipity Stamps order!

Pauline is right... you have been so busy! I can hardly keep up with all you have done, but your beautiful background paper with the dogwood branches is beautiful. I love that birdhouse...perfectly colored. The rustic look with the jute ribbon and the soft pink bow is beautiful. I also really like the way you took your picture with the bamboo along the bottom and the music paper in the background. Really pretty post today Jeanne.

Hi I'm Jeanne!

A Kept Life

When I left my full time career job my husband started calling me his "kept wife". The name of my blog is a play on that expression, because now I capture moments in photographs, and create in color in my "kept life". I hope you enjoy - thanks for stopping by!
